Bo Diddley - Mona mp3 download

Bo wrote many classic songs. I always loved his plaintive cry for Mona. She must have been quite a woman. Hey! Hey Hey Hey! Mona ...

I read one time that bo created his vibrato from old clock parts he wired into his amp ... his singing sends sparks down my spine but not in a gay way

reply to whippersnappertgrI was at that Louisville concert you mentioned 1982. It was a magical night. Bo used a local backing band and another local band, The Holidays, opened for him. For the last song, they played Mona for over 15 minutes and every musician there plugged in and played along. As I recall, including Bo, there where eight guitarist playing Mona, almost comical. It was such a festive crowd and mood no one wanted to stop, and even Bo Diddley seemed to be elevated by the night and kept the Mona going strong for one round after another. And like you observed, it seemed everyone in the place danced to every second of it. My favorite concert memory of all time owed to the great Bo Diddley.

It is not just the tremolo effect Bo did at some time build his own Amplifiers that also gave Him a wider range of sounds if you listen to other Artists you can hear that they could get close but not as close to copying Bo due to his early masterful sound that he created

Beautiful lyrics: build my house next door to you...we can throw kisses through the blinds, listen go my heart go bumpety bump
